Guys,
All help greatly appreciated. ...
Have a problem with a pop up on my laptop that's locking out access, it's looking for payment to unfreeze access (probably linked to some African Prince in exile!).
Any ideas how to get rid of this, no doubt need to go into Task Manager or settings.
Cheers,
A |

"All the antivirus companies have a free tool to remove it.
majority of these are created by antivirus companies "
Moat are created by backward engineering nsa/cia virus. Not for much longer though, cause iran is gearing up to release new virus code. |

F8 or F10 on start up should get you safe mode,once in that check control panel for it,Remove it and reboot,consider a good antivirus ( we use avast) also consider something like spybot search and destroy. If it's deep in the registry I would say you're better giving it to someone who knows what they are doing |

"Still struggling with this so any other tips welcome (plus a small share in the $7m held in an off shore account - please include your PPS number with solution to my PC problem)....lol "
"Restore" your pc to a time before the virus became active - you may lose any updates on files you have done since then but you should get rid of the malware. |

Yeah this is actually one of the tougher ones to get rid of as the residual files can recreate the problem.
You'll find one anti virus or malware remover will remove and it will come back.
Had this before when downloading legal software and it said was garda and cam came on and all ha. |
